This is one of the newer fields in engineering. A mechatronic engineer combines the principles of computer, electronics and mechanical engineering when designing, building and managing controls and imbedded systems, sensors, actuators and robotic systems. Mechatronic engineering applies to a range of practical applications such as creating intelligent machines and advanced manufacturing and processing systems. Completion of this major as part of the Bachelor of Engineering will prepare students for a career in mechatronic engineering. Students can combine this major with one of the following as a major or minor of the Bachelor of Engineering: electronics, computer, mechanical, software, and telecommunications engineering.
